It has been a while I know since the last I spoke with you, but great things are happening here in this part of the world!
In my last post I spoke of the rains which began a bit early this year, and as a matter of fact today is the last day of summer here and the rainy season begins. I mention that because several times these past couple weeks we have had service in a flooded area with rising water all around.
It is amazing that even when it is pouring down rain outside and that you have to bail the church out literally of water just to have service, that there is a packed house and people come and worship God despite of having all these setbacks. It is very convicting. If I had nothing and my church was flooded would I still come to worship God?....Anyways, Next week is our church's youth camp. Our team here has been working tirelessly to accomplish everything necessary for the camp. Details will follow after the camps ending next week.
Have you ever tried a jackfruit?... I have. It is this massive green prickly thing and when you break it open there are hundreds of these things------------------------------------------------------>They kind of taste like banana baby food but they are slimy and have a big seed in the middle. So once you get past the seed, it is kind of like eating a goldfish or something... eck!!!
On another note, it is the peak of the mango season and Bangladesh has some of the best, if not the best, mangos in the world. I have been eating them like crazy and they are so stinking sweet!
Hello my name is Tyler Cummings and I am a mangoholic..... : )Oh! BTW... I found Kraft macaroni and cheese on one of my little explorations around the city. I about had a cow because I was so excited. It's the little things that we take for granted that make it feel much more like home.
